         <description><![CDATA[<p>I'm Samantha Drost your new Personal Finance Teacher Leader Fellow for the Maine Department of Education’s Office of Teaching and Learning. I am excited to bring you a dynamic approach to financial education. As the 2019-20 Maine Jump$tart Teacher of the Year, I am passionate about making personal finance both engaging and accessible. I love creating a lively space in my classroom at Caribou High School, where students don’t just learn—they play through gamification! With the help of my favorite resource, Next Gen Personal Finance (NGPF), I have transformed traditional lessons into real-life experiences. Whether it’s budgeting, investing, or understanding credit, students get hands-on practice in a safe and fun environment, learning to make smart financial choices every day.</p><p><br></p><p>My personal finance teaching journey began in 2018 at a Next Gen Personal Finance FinCamp and Jump$tart National Educator Training, where I found my “family” of personal finance teachers. I hope to inspire you like those events inspired me by bringing hands-on, real-world practice to your classroom. Looking for Personal Finance resources? Email me! Let’s get the conversation started! &nbsp;<a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="mailto:samantha.drost@maine.gov"><strong>samantha.drost@maine.gov</strong></a></p>]]></description>
